The Librarians Suggest

Tolstoy is usually the first Russian fiction people start reading, Bukgakov is just as much a literary genius! I seriously cannot put this down! "Follow me, reader! Whoever told you there is no such thing in the world as real, true, everlasting love? May the liar have his despicable tongue cut out! Follow me, my reader, and only me, and I"ll show you that kind of love." 

If there was one word that summed up the three of us it would be Janeite. We all swoon over Darcy, and by Darcy we mean, Colin Firth. We've read Pride and Prejudice one, two, or more than three times and the rest of her works as well as everything else that has been inspired by Jane's books. To the original girl boss, happy birthday our beloved heroine. 

Happy Halloween! So we probably talk a bit too much on what the book is about but we still had a good time! Check out our thoughts on Susan Hill's "The Woman in Black." The movie differs from the book and you'll learn how it does in today's episode and more. We also talk about some ghostly experiences we've had ourselves and some spooky podcast and book recommendations.

"Like anyone who goes to the bookstore, I wasn't there to buy books. I do that on the internet at, like, 50% off and free shipping and no tax. Oh my god, $28.95 for a book? But luckily, this time, I made an exception because if there's one thing that I can never resist, it's a good tote bag. [To guy in the bookstore standing close to her] Hey, are you gonna buy that book?" From the greatest person who ever lived, well close - Mindy Kaling. I definitely picked this up in the 50% section at Barnes and Noble.  What have you been reading lately?  

As one of the hottest books right now, this is one is at the top of the lists to order. Who says you can't live alone and be happy. I swear by this author. 

Among the many new cookbooks that came out this year, this one is at the top of our list. Definitely adding to our long list of cookbooks to not just order for the library but for our personal collections as well. Also completely judging this cookbook by it's cover! 

Another great set of stories from Megan Mayhew Bergman!
